Jacki and Nicolo

Jacki & Nicolo are contemporary circus artists specializing in duo aerial straps, duo cerceau, and solo handbalancing and contortion.  Their expressive and fluid style is influenced by their combined experience in capoeira, gymnastics, theatre and dance.  After extensive solo careers, Jacki and Nicolo traveled together to Mongolia in 2011 to train with world-renown contortion and hand balancing coaches.  While there, Nicolo and Jacki discovered a shared interest in yurts, handstand technique and…each other.  Since then, they have traveled, trained, taught, choreographed and rehearsed side by side.  As a duo, they have performed with the Acrobatic Conundrum, DoJump! Theatre and AIDA Cruises, among others.  They are currently on tour with Cavalia’s Odysseo performing their highlighted duo hoop number.
